What's Happening

Freshman Class Full for 2013

The 2013 freshman class is now full. The deadline to confirm space in the class was May 1, and we are no longer accepting enrollment deposits for the summer and fall 2013 terms. Waitlisted students will be contacted by mail regarding options for enrolling for a future term. If you have questions about admission to South Carolina, please call our office at (803)777-7700 and ask to speak with an admissions counselor. We would be happy to assist you and discuss your future enrollment options.

Attention admitted students!

If you claimed South Carolina legal residency on your admissions application, you must submit the South Carolina Residency Certification Form. Log in to Self Service Carolina to complete the form. Your certification may impact your eligibility for certain types of need-based aid for which you may qualify.
